Product Results

At first I thought this product worked so well. My skin was soft and smooth my pores clean and clear until about a month later then I saw the real results. The small granules of volcanic pumice had wedge themselves deep into my pores and became infected resulting in cystic acne. I didn’t catch on at first because I have to wear a mask daily at work so I thought that was the culprit. Once I stopped using the wash my skin gradually cleared up again. It was the wash! The pumice was ground on such a fine level, but it still felt harsh and painfully sharp on my thin skin. I don’t recommend this product as a face wash. It might do wonders for the neck and body, but it’s too harsh for the face and not healthy to use. As for its sister product the Pore Cleansing Face Foam that one works wonders because it contains the same ingredients but minus the abrasive pumice! Check out the full review. Goodbye Pore Scrub Foam and onto the next!
